what's up guys it's ad from tech source and welcome to the video most of you guys have been waiting for the top 5 budget microphones under 50 bucks I will be doing a mic test later in the video but let's go ahead and unbox these real quick you guys can also find everything listed in the video down below in the description section so starting off is the toner mic that goes for 17 bucks which is the cheapest condenser mic in the video it does have a 3.5 millimeter jack which means that all you have to do is plug it in and start recording it also comes with a tiny tripod to hold the mic and position it at an angle that's comfortable next up we have the newer studio mic and this one comes with an XLR to 3.5 millimeter cable a foam cover shock mount and adapter and finally the mic itself with a gold-plated windscreen if gold isn't really your color or messes with your setups team then you can just slap the foam cover on it and you are set at number 3 we have the Florian condenser mic which surprisingly looks very similar to the newer mic but instead you get a different color in the box you get a USB adapter which has inputs for both mic and headsets any foam cover another XLR to 3.5 millimeter cable a shock mount and the mic itself with a blue body and silver windscreen and number four we have one of the most popular mics in the tech community the blue snowball ice microphone everyone and their mothers seem to make a big fuss about this but I will get to the bottom of this and figure out if this is really one of the best budget mics out there so in the box you will find the headpiece which is surprisingly heavier than I imagined in the other box you'll find a QuickStart guide the USB cable needed to power and connect the mic and a tiny aluminum tripod which is connected to the headpiece I'm personally not a fan of a tiny tripods because when it comes to voice recording you can't really adjust the height meaning you either need to raise the desk itself or place it high enough so that it's right in front of your mouth I much prefer mounting the mics on a boom arm so that not only it stays off your desk but you can also position it at the perfect angle for voiceovers luckily the boom arm that I'm using for my personal audio setup is compatible with all the mics in this video ex the toner and I will leave a link below if anyone is interested in checking it out and finally the last mic is actually a lavalier mic from Hassan Iser that's compatible with iPhones Androids and even tablets so here's I'm going to be testing the microphones I will hook up the condenser mics to my audio rig as if I'm going to do an actual voiceover for one of my videos and I'll do a voiceover by connecting the mic to my audio interface and I'll do another voice over using the 3.5 millimeter cable that came with the mic the reason why I want to show you guys the difference between both of them because there is a huge difference between connecting the microphone to your audio interface or connecting it to your PC I'm also going to be showing you guys with editing and without editing so you guys can really hear the difference in quality as far as the snowball and tone our mic I can only connect them straight into the PC since they don't have XLR connections and the lavalier mic is only compatible at smartphones and tablets so I will use my iPhone 6 as plus to do the mic test what's up guys is that from Jack's source and I'm talking directly at the toner mic and this is without removing the background noise what's up guys it's that from tech source and I'm talking directly at the toner mic and this is with the removal of the background noise what's up guys is that from tech source and I'm talking directly in the Floriade mic and this is without removing the background noise what's up guys is that from tech source and I'm talking directly in the flurry on mic and this is with the background noise removed what's up guys it's ad from tech source and this is what it sounds like when I hook up the Florian mic directly into my focus right audio interface and this is without any editing what's up guys is that from tech source and I'm talking directly at the newer mic and this is without the removal of the background noise what's up guys is that from tech source and I'm talking directly at the newer mic and this is with the removal of the background noise what's up guys is that from tech source and I'm talking directly at the newer mic hooked up to my focus right audio interface and once again this is without any editing what's up guys it's that from tech source and I'm talking directly at the blue snowball mic and this is without removing the background noise what's up guys it's that from tech source and I'm talking directly at the blue Yeti mic with the removal of the background no what's up guys is that from tech source and I'm talking directly at the iPhone 6s plus without any editing or without any microphones hooked up what's up guys is that from tech source and I'm talking with the mic hooked up on my shirt and once again this is without any editing and finally to give you guys a comparison to the microphone I use for all my voiceovers this is what it sounds like without any editing so right off the bat you guys can tell whatever mic I connected to my audio interface sounded way better that's kind of the point these things are created to enhance the overall sound quality honestly if we're up to me I would save up for the Focusrite audio bundle you get the mic audio interface and a pair of headphones for only 210 bucks and this will be the last thing you purchased in terms of voiceover audio if you're gonna be upgrading audio upgrade once and be done with it I think I had this since 50,000 subscribers which was over two years ago and it's still kicking ass but this is a budget mic video so obviously if you're watching this then you most likely don't have that kind of money or don't want to spend that kind of money in audio equipment so based on this video and the audio samples this is the list of microphones from best quality to the worst well there you have it the best sounding mic goes to the blue snowball without without an audio interface so if you guys are looking for a purely plug-and-play simple straightforward microphone under 50 bucks that doesn't require any editing or running it that nonsense this is your best option on the 50 bucks hands down but if you're like me and always want to step up your audio game and want your videos to have crispy sound I strongly suggest picking up an XLR microphone that way you could hook it up to an audio interface and that'll get you the best possible audio compared to just plugging it straight into your PC for example if you pick up the florian mic and hook it up to an audio interface the audio you get will sound way better than the snowball mic but it will cost you it just depends on how much you willing to spend if your bank account will allow it so before I end this video I want to give you huge things to dot tech domain for making this video possible if you guys haven't heard I've acquired a new
